Zillow 5K Run/Walk at 8:15 a.m.

News Talk 97.3 KIRO FM 10K Run at 9 a.m.

Foss Maritime Half-Mile Kids’ Run at 10:15 a.m.

Shuttle buses are available to take participants to start points at Leschi and Ferdinand parks. After the races, the Bert’s Red Apple Party-in-the-Park (in Madison Park) will feature live music, food, awards and a drawing for prizes, including round-trip tickets on Continental Airlines.

All 5K and 10K participants will receive a long-sleeved technical running shirt, which is lighter and more breathable than a cotton T-shirt.
